Funny you should say this. I asked all along why they would terminate rights to just one child and not both. The caseworker told me because they are half-sisters and have different fathers. I still don't understand that. Why didn't they terminate bio-mom's rights to both children at the same time? They can address bio-dad at a later date because the baby is only 9 months and apparently they need to give him more time to work a case plan. But what they have done now is open up a situation whereas the bio-mom who was deemed unfit to have one of the children may end up with visitation of the other one. ?????
There is a hearing for my youngest coming up before bio-mom's release from jail, so I'm thinking I should call her child advocate and push for them to move for termination. Would you do that? The child advocate is very in favor of the youngest child staying here as well, given the bparents' histories.
